A leak under the slab of a bathroom floor has brought my gameroom project to a grinding halt. At the moment, one wall is framed out and the rest of it is littered with kids toys and bathroom remodeling stuff. :dizzy:

Warning: unfinished room

I bet you want to know why there are pool balls on the pong table right?

In my garage is a 9ft brunswick I am refinishing.....the pool balls are there to remind me I should be working in the garage, not playing xbox.

C'mon guys, post those pics!

nice rooms guys.  i was hoping to get my cabinets done soon so i could post my game room, but my wife and i decided a few days ago that we are going to try to buy a house. (we are currently renting one)  so most of my projects are on hold since we will probably be moving soon.

@pbwiz: that is a large room there. Can't quite see if you'll be able to fit that pool table with the ping-pong, but definitely without. May have to change the layout of the tables, like turning the foosball a quarter.

Nice game rooms so far - I'm stuck with a corner of the garage until we buy a new house, so I won't humiliate myself by posting pics. One thing for pbwiz: you've got to get rid of that dartboard, and get a real arcade version, something like this:

Thanks, I really like the style of your room broseph & its inspired me to beg for a Zelda quilt from my GF.

Ummon:
Danke as well & you are correct about the pool table, it indeed *replaces* the pong table which goes into storage. Although I will mod the pong top to safely sit on the billiards surface for beer pong & etc. Regarding the lower level's size: 1,500 sq ft of finished space (+500 sq ft raw storage/shop) with a 9ft ceiling & a walkout = just enough space for the next wave of goodies & hopefully a 7ft darth vader.

But only the video poker, pool table & wheel mount will happen during 2008 :-(


Well gentlemen I must end this post with my own quote of wisdom.

I love the pics and all the game room ideas.  I myself grew up with a game room in our basement and I spent many hours/years of fun playing in it.  We had a vintage 1946 Rockola Jukebox, antique bowling machine, two antique pinball machines later exchanged for more modern games for multiplayer game play.  A panchinko game from the 1970s like everyone had and a ton of cool beer signs and posters.

I do have photos of the game room on the following page, it's the one with the red/yellow checkered flooring:

http://www.game-room-decorating-ideas.com/game-room-photos.html

I myself am currently working on creating my own game room and I'm thinking of using a theme, either an Asian Themed Game Room or International Themed Game Room.  In either case I can't wait to get it done.  And when I do I'll post some pics here, it may be a while though.

I have a long thread on CGCC about the game room I've built in my basement.

A lot more work has been done, but my camera is dead, but I'll post some more pics soon.

If you can build an arcade you can fix a camera right?

Er, I cant even fix the downspout in my front yard so perhaps not.

I live in Los Angeles. Cause of earthquakes, it's rare for homes to have basements. So you're basically shortchanged an extra room and don't get me started on what they already charge for housing over here. Even with the sudden fall of house pricing and all the foreclosures houses are still being charged an arm and a leg for them. A few actually so you even have to throw others peoples arms and legs into the mix. At least it sure feels that way. :dizzy:

Mine is still a work in progress..

Here is a pic just after painting the ceiling and walls



Here are a couple pics from a gamenight earlier in the year, you can see the marquees around the ceiling/wall border, I'm slowly adding to them and am almost around the entire room now





You cant see the cocktail and another sitdown cabinet in the pics, and I'll have to put some pics up of the wall mounted juke (touchscreen) as well...

Still to come, I have a 6 head soda fountain I just need a CO2 tank for  :cheers:

Thanks for the kudos bro. If you want a basement & affordable housing just move to the midwest. I spent a little time in Cali myself, back when I sold semi-fictitious money to people who semi-didnt pay (@ countrywide). If memory serves me correctly there was a dude who spent like $400k on a 296sqft studio condotel in the bay area....sheesh, CA = expensive. I dont even want to tell you what $400k gets you here  :laugh2: but then again I see no palm trees or mountains here  :-[

More pics guys, post more pics, this is great, its like Cialis for dorks, er I mean yeah thats what I said!

I bet you can get a Taj Mahal like palace in the midwest for 400K. Here in California, you're lucky if you can get a house with a yard for that price.


Hey MK3Fan

Where did you get yourself one of them Mega touch screens?
Now that I think about where can I get some of the casino type gambling touchscreens? The ones that have many games in one? That would be awesome to have! But prefferably one that does nickels. :D

I just checked for a Megatouch online and they where quoting I think $1300 :o

That star wars must be worth a pretty penny. Also, I think it's illegal to own a video poker machine in California even if it is for private use. :banghead:

Could someone confirm that?  :dizzy:

Call your Attorney General's office.  Or your state government's division gaming.  Or the police.  Or an attorney.   :tool:

As long as its set up for tokens or freeplay & not in the states of: Alabama, California, Colorado, Conneticut, Florida, Indiana, Louisiana, New Jersey, North Carolina, Montana, South Carolina or Washington people can have one.

I have a street fighter slot machine in my house, it only gets played when I drink a lot or when visitors are over.

So yep, CA = no casino toys.

I wouldnt sweat it though, just buy a laptop used on ebay, get an empty 8 liner cab, some new buttons, a keywhiz, a custom bezel from MameMarquees & some slot machine software found online or at the evil walmart........then $250 later you have a really cool full sized standup slot & poker machine you can play....... thats a project sitting in my garage right now actually......

I traded it at a value of $2000. Me and the vendor came up with the Simpsons, the Killer Instinct 2 , and the Megatouch valueing $2000, and the deal was made.
